Read on the net that some articles are now saying should certain senior players be dropped to the bench and to give way to others ? The players in question 1) Simon Mignolet ; 2) Glen Johnson; 3) SG 4) Henderson and of course 5) Mario.
Liverpool make quite a few errors in the transfer market recently. They should not have let Reina and Agger go without getting in a replacement for them. Mario was a panic buy for them as their first choice did not want to come to Liverpool but went to London instead.
The transfer committee is working too slow to get their targets in. Liverpool should be able to get top players as we are in the Champions League but in the end who did we get ?
Really hope for BR sake and for Liverpool's sake that something must be done to turn the team the around. No player or manager is greater than the club.
P.S. : I really pity the fans who pay good money to see the players play. For us we can always switch off or go see another match.

I just can't swallow that Southampton despite selling off their' best' players to us and they now sit at second place in the table!

BR is the one who can recommend to the transfer committee which type of players he wants. It is the committee who have the final say in the selection. Agree with you that BR should take most of the blame for Liverpool's woeful performance. His selection of players and tactics for each game lies solely with him. But should Liverpool decide to part ways with BR , the question now would be who to replace him ?

Heads have rolled..... 3 scouts from the scouting team were sacked by Liverpool a couple of days ago. The scouting / transfer department has been revamped and BR is more directly involved with the selection of players from now onwards.
Under the old system BR will inform the transfer committee the type of players he needs and the scouting team will go scout the players and recommend to BR to approve. BR does not know which are the players are being scouted and is only aware when the name appears before him for approval so he has to rely heavily on the scouts reports. Let's see how the new system works out.

That means that BR will not be sacked anytime soon. The transfer committee needs to move fast if they want to secure their desired target. Because if they don't other clubs will come in and snatch away Liverpool's target. Liverpool must also be prepared to pay for quality players. Cheap players don't necessarily mean they are good. Just look at Mignolet is a good example.I really hope Liverpool do qualify for Champions League next season.

Actually if you look at the table closely, this season thus far has been pretty strange apart from runaway leaders Chelsea. All the other so called big clubs and challengers have been faltering every now and then.
Back to Liverpool, just wondering whether it may now be better to end up 3rd in their CL group and head down to the Europa League competition and try and win this competition as an alternative route to next season's CL competition?
On Balotelli, to be fair to the lad, think he has been trying to improve but I think Brendan's single striker strategy just does not suit Balotelli's style of play. Interesting to note that Mario has got an international call up, so hope he get's some Italian international game time this next week, plays well, scores, to boost his confidence when he returns to Melwood/Anfield.

What I cannot stand the manager is - I never like managers to say "the players late motivation, commitment"
Do they ever think that as a Manager, it is your responsibilities to motivate the players. As the manager is not the one on the pitch, so it core responsibilities is just to select the players and motivate them.
This is 1 thing BR has failed to do so.
"Clear handball", "Clear Penalty"...clear clear clear...why don't he start thinking why the ball is not in the opponent's net..

William Carvalho will be a good buy as he will provide the midfield with stability. This young guy has good passing abilities combined with vision and power.
Brendan Rodgers is plotting a big money move for Real Madrid's playmaker Isco.

BR should put aside all his personal feelings with respect to Reina. I say this again when Reina was at his peak he won the Golden Glove 3 times. Imagine how many clean sheets he had kept for Liverpool with Skrtel & Agger & Carragher in front of him. Now fast forward to present GK Mignolet he had been letting in goals in every game. Everybody now knows Mignolet's weakness and they had exploited time and again. It doesn't mean cheap is good. Sometimes you have to pay top money for experience players. Liverpool should have brought in another GK b4 releasing Reina. So whose fault is it ? DS and Coutinho are the only 2 players that are successful in the present regime.

I think the manager should shoulder most of the blame for Liverpool's woeful performance. It is he who pick the players and tactics. You already played with 1 striker upfront and you know that is not working so why does he still persist to use the same player? Last season Liverpool were successful because the use 2 strikers upfront. When you have only 1 striker it is easier to mark him. Sometimes I also can't understand why he don't use other players that are available for him. Finally I am really missing our Mr Bitey .
